Weddings, proposals and anniversaries

Your love, written into a song

Record a song for the person you love, in the highest music studio in Europe. The Thames runs below you and the city goes out to the horizon. You leave with a finished track that is yours and nobody else's.

Three moments

Three ways people use it

The proposal

The proposal

Record the song first. Play it to them when you ask. It is your voice, and it is about them. We keep it quiet until the day.

The wedding

The wedding

A song written for the two of you, played while you dance to it. The track is yours, so your DJ or band can have the file.

The anniversary

The anniversary

For couples who have been given everything already. Record the song that was playing when you met, or a new one about the years since.

Depends on what you want to make. Tell us and we will reply the same day

In thirty years, it will still be your voice singing to them.

That is the part nobody thinks about when they are choosing a gift.

Why this one

Why couples choose it

  1. Nobody else can give it

    Anyone can buy the same necklace. Nobody else can make this one, because it needs your voice.

  2. You play it again

    A present is opened once. A song gets played at the wedding, on the anniversary, and in the car for years.

  3. It lasts

    Most gifts matter most on the day you give them. This one matters more every year after.

How it works

Four steps, with the team beside you

  1. Tell us what you are planning. The occasion, the date, and the song. If you have no idea yet, that is fine.
  2. We plan it around you. Who is singing, and whether it stays a surprise. If it is a gift, we handle the timing.
  3. You record. Three to four hours, with an engineer coaching you through it. Nobody is expected to be a singer.
  4. We finish it and send it. Mixed and mastered, delivered as a file you own, in time for the date you gave us.

What you get

What you walk away with

Always

The finished song

Mixed and mastered to release standard. A real recording, not a home one.

Always

A private session

The studio is yours for the booking. Bring the people you want there.

On request

Photos and video

The session filmed and photographed, so you have more than the song.

The room

The most beautiful room you will ever record in

Choisez Studio is the highest music studio in Europe. The Thames runs below you, the city goes out to the horizon on every side, and the light changes all the way through a session. People stop talking when they walk in.

For the hours you are booked the whole place is yours. No other sessions, nobody else in the room, nobody rushing you out. It is also a working professional studio, which is why the recordings come out properly.

Getting here is easy. Canary Wharf is on the Elizabeth line, the Jubilee line and the DLR, about thirteen minutes from Soho and six from Liverpool Street.

Questions

What people ask before booking

What is a good wedding gift for someone who loves music?

A song recorded in their name. You can record one for the person you are marrying, or record it together, and leave with a finished track nobody else has a copy of. It works equally as a proposal surprise, a wedding gift, a first dance or an anniversary present.

Do we need to be able to sing?

No, and most people who book this cannot. The engineer coaches you through it, we record as many takes as you need, and tuning and editing are a normal part of making any record.

Can I book it as a surprise?

Yes, and many of these are. Tell us what you are planning and we will work around their schedule and keep it quiet until the day.

Do we have to write the song ourselves?

No. Cover something that means something to you both, bring words you have written and let us build the music around them, or have the whole song written from scratch about your story.

How long does it take?

Three to four hours in the studio. The finished, mixed and mastered track arrives a few days later, in time for the date you give us.

Can we use it for our first dance?

Yes. The track is yours outright, so you can send it to your DJ or band, play it on the day, and put it on streaming afterwards if you want to.

Where is the studio?

Canary Wharf in east London, high above the city, on the Elizabeth line, the Jubilee line and the DLR. Full directions come with your booking.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you want to make, from recording a cover through to an original song written and produced for you. Tell us what you have in mind and we will come back the same day with a price.

Enquire

Tell us what you are planning

A few lines is enough. We reply the same day with what it would cost.

We reply the same day. Nothing is shared with anyone, and if it is a surprise we keep it that way.

For wedding planners and photographers

Something new to offer your couples

For the couples who have been given everything already. A song recorded for them, ready in time for the wedding.

For your couples

Easy to say yes to

No singing ability needed and nothing for them to organise. One session, and we handle the rest.

For you

Priority and held dates

Partner enquiries come first, and we hold a date while a couple decides.

Commission

Paid on every booking

A referral commission on every booking, agreed in writing first.

Come and see the room before you recommend it. It takes twenty minutes.

One song, yours for good

Tell us the occasion and the date. We will take it from there.
